I won't name any titles, but I'm not just happy when a good horror movie comes my way. I'm also relieved. And by "good," I of course mean "terrifying." Horror movies can be made on a low budget, don't need to use big stars, have free reign creatively if they're R-rated, and possess the rebellious spirit of rock. Horror films express social anxiety, which means they demonstrate the talent of the people who make them. If one happens to be good, it means that the culture and spirit of our society is developing and hasn't become stagnant. That's why a good horror movie makes me both happy and relieved.
タイトルは言わないんだけれど、「良いホラー映画」が何本か来ると嬉しいだけでなく、安心します。「良い」というのは「恐い」って意味です。
まずホラー映画は低予算で作れて、大スター起用の必要が無く、R指定になれば創作的に自由で、その精神は反骨的ロック。恐怖は社会の不安を表現し、つまり作る人の才能がもの凄く良く分かる映画。それが「良い」という事は、私たちの社会の文化や精神が停滞ではなく、『発展している』という事なので、良いホラー映画は嬉しくて安心するのです。
